Listing ID: 3078

Listing Description

Profitable, fully built-out restaurant & sports bar in a high-traffic East Tucson trade area — offered confidentially at $375,000 plus inventory at cost, a fully operating business transferred free and clear of any debts.

THE NUMBERS (register-verified)

FY2025 revenue per books: $1.43M with $150,849 in seller’s discretionary earnings — the company’s best margin year
Four-year POS-documented sales history across two independent systems, including a $1.55M record year in 2024 with ~76,000 guest visits
29.8% combined food & beverage cost and 7.7% occupancy cost in FY2025 — a cost structure already tuned
Average guest spend up ~25% since 2023 with traffic retained

THE OPERATION
A 4,555 SF full-service concept: scratch kitchen under hood, full liquor bar with a 20+ handle draft system and dedicated keg room, performance stage for live entertainment, pool tables, and TVs throughout. Service runs lunch through late night, seven days — a daypart spread few independent competitors match. A ~13-person team including shift management runs the floor; the owner is not tied to a station, and an owner-operator can expand margins immediately.

THE LEASE
Below-market rent (~$2.00/SF/month all-in, 7.7% of revenue) with committed term to mid-2032 plus a ten-year renewal option — roughly 15 years of site control on one of the city’s primary east-west corridors. Replicating this build-out today would cost several times the asking price before serving a single guest.

THE UPSIDE
FY2025 results were achieved with essentially zero marketing spend ($500 vs. $24.8K the prior year). Growth levers already in place: restore demand marketing, adopt an owner-operator labor model (labor ran 40% vs. a 32-34% benchmark — an $85K-$115K opportunity at current volume), reclaim the proven $1.55M sales peak, and program the stage, game-day, and catering calendar. Dense trade area of ~209,000 residents across six ZIP codes, with a major university, a large military base and retiree population, and winter-visitor traffic supporting the market.

THE DEAL
Clean asset sale: assets, brand, and lease assignment convey free and clear; seller retires all entity obligations at closing through escrow with customary clearances. Arizona’s non-quota restaurant liquor license lets a qualified buyer operate from day one under an interim permit. Inventory counted and purchased at cost. Training and transition support included. SBA-financeable for qualified buyers.

All listing and financial information to be verified by buyer during due diligence.
